What I think the Wiki site needs (among other things) is the following:
Pages for every challenge showing the top times and brief description of the challenge itself.
A calendar of some description, as we now appear to have 456 people who have created one.
A history of the tube challenge to date (275 only to start with) using content taken from the tubechallenge.com website. I would suggest holding off on this one for now until I go through it and edit bits out.
What should NOT appear on the Wiki:
Personal accounts of challenges
Non-verifiable information (it is a Wiki after all and all sources should be verifiable)
Mindless chat (leave that to this forum)
Your thoughts?

It sounds like you've got most bases covered with your initial outline of what site should contain.
History of TC.
List of alternative challenges with Top 10 times for each.
Calendar of upcoming events.
For those who want to chat about TC something to direct them to this forum.
I think the Wikipedia thing should be kept running as this is a good source of information and also points people towards this forum.
OK, seeing as all I had to do was copy & paste from the lists already posted on here, ive put all the data on at my original proposed URL ( http://www.jonnylyon.net/tubechallenge/ ). If it were to be used (which looks doubtful) I would put a description of the challenge on each page.
Mine was merely an idea that I came up with before reading your plans for a wiki.
I started on it, then read your thing, so decided to finish it anyway. I'm not really proposing it because I think your idea is better. It's just there as a sidenote.
Unless enough people show an interest its being binned.
I am interested
